Nascent Wireless Power Growth


Originating with simple inductive charging mechanisms that require a direct point of contact between charger and device, wireless power systems are evolving toward devices that connect to the wider power delivery infrastructure. As the technology matures and the industry consolidates, wireless power is beginning to see acceptance across a range of applications, and will become a common form of charging in the coming years.

According to Pike Research, the market for wireless power systems – encompassing mobile devices, consumer electronics, industrial applications, infrastructure devices and electric vehicles – will triple over the next 8 years, growing from US$4.9 billion in revenue in 2012 to $15.1 billion in 2020.

"Evidence is building that wireless power technology can be an environmentally friendly and that, before the end of the decade, it could contribute to a significant reduction in carbon emissions and embedded energy used to produce, ship and dispose of conventional charging equipment,” says Bob Gohn, vice president of Pike Research.

“While the market is still nascent, the rapid spread of wireless charging systems for mobile devices is a clear indicator the broader wireless power sector has the potential to be a game-changer,” says Gohn.

While North America is the largest market for wireless power today, it will be surpassed by mid-decade by the Asia Pacific region. Wireless power revenue in Asia Pacific will reach $6 billion in 2020, the cleantech market intelligence firm forecasts, representing 40% of the worldwide market. By application, the largest sector for wireless power in 2020 will still be mobile devices, with 36% of total revenue.

Now facebook hit with international class action privacy suit

An Austrian privacy activist has launched a wide-reaching class action suit against Facebook Ireland for breaching European data protection law. Anyone outside of the US and Canada can join activist and law student Max Schrems' suit via the website fbclaim.com, since they will have signed up to Facebook's terms and conditions via the Dublin-based European subsidiary. That amounts to around 82 percent of all Facebook users. After being live for just one hour, the site has collected 100 participants. The suit is seeking damages of €500 ($537) per user, and injunctions to be levied on the company for the following breaches:     Failing to get "effective consent" for using data     Implementing a legally invalid data use policy     Tracking users online outside of Facebook via "Like" buttons     Using big data to monitor users     Failing to make Graph Search opt-in     The unauthorized passing of use...
